Elle Dakin is shocked when she’s given the opportunity to fly to Paris to authenticate a newly discovered work of art. After all, why would they choose a broke, struggling Art History doctoral student for such an honored task? When she arrives in Paris, she realizes the deal was too good to be true. Now she’s neck-deep in international art theft and a murder—not to mention that someone wants her dead. Thank goodness Ryan, an art exporter, is there to protect her from the dangers of Paris and her would-be attackers.

He can’t tell her the truth of his identity, plus he refuses to get romantically involved with anyone while he’s on a case. But when he learns Elle also has things to hide, he begins to doubt everything he knows about her…
